| Description | In Huntsville, AL, the witness recounts seeing triangular UFOs multiple times during their childhood, specifically above the treetop level and near Redstone Arsenal. These sightings, described as having four somewhat red lights and moving slowly, were shared with their brothers. The witness believes these objects to be military craft due to their proximity to the arsenal. An image of the triangular object photographed by the witness’s family members, was subsequently provided (see below). Additionally, the witness mentions other types of UFO sightings, including a “sparkly” UFO seen in deep space, characterized by multicolored and multi-brightness lights, and another sighting involving white sparkles near the constellation of Orion. These experiences were shared with family members, who also observed related phenomena. UAPSRS Assessment: Follow-up investigation by the UAPSRS upon receipt of the image provided by the witnesses, included below, could not rule out the possibility of a military test flight involving an experimental platform, possibly associated with Redstone Arsenal, although officials UAPSRS spoke with said no such testing would have taken place involving unknown experimental platforms at the location. This case currently remains unresolved, and inquiries/investigation continue. |
